{"product_id":"9780615745343","title":"Daddy, R U A Monster?","description":"I am Richard Martin, Jr., born in 1976 and raised by my grandmother, along with my two sisters. I learned the power of money early in life. I hustled on the streets of New Orleans. I robbed people. I lied and cheated and, after losing my virginity at 14 years old, I began to make babies, but, most of all, I began to go through women like I was drinking water. During all of my early years-my formative years-I struggled with not having a mother and, though my father was around, I also struggled with not really having a strong father figure or even a positive male role model of any kind. Like the cliché, I looked for love in all the wrong places and when I didn't get my way I resorted to physical violence against my lovers. And, if that wasn't enough, in 2005 I was displaced from my home by one of the most devastating storms in U.S. history. In spite of this, I still knew one thing: I wanted to change-for the girl that I loved, but even more when I began to feel God calling me to do His will. The bad decisions I made in my life didn't necessarily define who I was or who I could be. Many of the lessons I learned early in life I truly began to understand later in life. I would also eventually learn that God's voice and His plans supersede everything, if you let it, if you're a man who really wants to change. \u003cp\u003eDaddy, R U A Monster? is my life story and evidence that there are no insurmountable obstacles in life, if you put God first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RMJ Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50080181944560,"sku":"9780615745343","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780615745343","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
